Default Problem with manifold

Ive had my saxo about 6 months now and have realised that it is blowing out the front because of a hole where i think the gasket has gave in. I wasnt sure if to geta new gasket for it or just to buy a new manifold but wanted to ask if fitting a raceland 4-2-1 manifold on this will fix the problem?

heres a pic of where the problem is, the arrow points to where the hole is.

Yes it will fix it as the 4-2-1 replaces the down pipe aswell

Well replacing the manifold with anything will fix the problem as the blow is on the old Manifold. You can get gaskets.

But I'd fit a 4-2-1 or a 4-1 as they're much better and in my opinion what's the point in replacing it with a standard one? Lol.
